Living a more sustainable life/towards a cleaner planet - as an individual and businesses
Industry:
· be more energy-efficient
· switch from dirty fossil fuels (coal and oil) to cleaner natural gas
Electricity companies:
· clean up the gases before they are emitted
· rely more and more upon renewable energy sources such as HEP, wind and solar
Homeowners:
· reduce heat losses from roofs, walls and windows
· fit tiles that include solar cells inside them
· do not waste heat or hot water
· Recycle
· Compost
· Energy efficient light bulbs
Drivers:
· Chose small, fuel-efficient cars instead of 'gas-guzzlers'
· electric cars
· use public transport
· car share
